1Opinion of the Court
MACK KIDD, Justice.
National Western Life Insurance Co. (“National”) brings this interlocutory appeal challenging the trial court’s order certifying a class action. See Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem.Code Ann. § 51.014(a)(3) (West Supp.2002). National contends that the trial court abused its discretion in certifying the class because the appellee, Ella Mae Rowe, failed to satisfy certain requirements for class certification under rule 42 of the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure. We will affirm the trial court’s order certifying the class.
